RE: Re buyout

RE: Re buyoutI am surprised at your estimate of $65, I believe that it is not high enough, I am not saying you are wrong, I am just surprised that when you think about it. 10,000,000 ounces of gold at a low estimate of $1000 = 10 billion dollars
then you subtract the very rough estimate of operating costs of say $500 an ounce I believe for similar projects,
(again I could be wrong) but that leaves you with 5 billion dollars of profits, so minus your startup cost of lets say half a billion dollars, and you are left with 4.5 billion dollars in profits, and they are still expanding their resouce, so yes I definatly agree with you that now is the time to load up.  And again you could be right but would you please clarify why a buyout offer would be so low, which is still 6x from todays stock price, and if this is the case why would the not just mine it themselves, if the profits are going to be so huge.
